Jeremy Sarpiento had his first run out for Albion – and was involved in a goal.
The England youth international signed recently from Benfica played wide on the right in a friendly with the under-23s.
His shot was parried before Ulrick Emene Ella headed home the rebound to secure a 1-0 win over Isthmian League outfit Worthing at the Seagulls’ training complex in Lancing.
FORMER ALBION ASSISTANT BOSS DIES
Gary Dicker, who recently returned to the club in a player/coaching role with the 23s, operated in central midfield.
Boss Andrew Crofts played two different XIs in what was the first friendly of pre-season.
Haydon Roberts was also involved. The defender spent last season playing on loan at League One outfit Rochdale although his campaign was cut short by injury.
